Exploring Emotional Finance
An in person workshop for Women in Financial Services
An experiential day of connection, insight and reflection in Sheffield, designed by women in financial services for women in financial services.
Join us for a unique one day workshop, generously sponsored by LV=, facilitated by Emma Boardwell, Founder of Emotional Finance, and co-designed with Sophie Smith of Joyful Wealth.
Hosted in a beautiful, intimate space at The Victoria in Sheffield, this event is for female financial professionals who want to foster their emotional and relational intelligence in the workplace.
Grounded in the framework of Emotional Finance, the day will offer an introduction to creating the conditions of trust and to building the emotional and relational skills and practices that underpin strong working relationships, and encourage client engagement, loyalty and referral.
Through guided reflection, facilitated dialogue, live demonstrations and supported role play, we’ll explore themes such as:
What builds—or quietly erodes—trust in financial services
How to cultivate presence and calm in the midst of the hustle
Offering empathy that connects, but doesn’t deplete
Finding your authentic voice in a profession still shaped by masculine norms
You’ll leave feeling resourced, supported and reconnected to your purpose.
This isn’t a day of lectures or theory overload (though it will qualify for 6 hours structured CPD) . Rather, it’s designed to be a spacious, energising day to allow for connection, growth and insight—with an intimate group of peers, rich experiential learning, and a generous dose of professional nourishment.
All female financial professionals welcome whatever your role!
